home entertainment system

Hi list, I use LIRC with mplayer,Xmms and irmix. at present I have to start mplayer first using mouse and then control it with lirc. same for xmms. the problem here that you can't execute multiple application at a time but has to start only one at a time -:( but I have come to know from net that there are some home entertainment system based on lirc-aware applications like AIDO, Xawtv, etc.etc..... which makes the pc just look like a menu based TV. some of you have already used Xawtv. what about the other applications ?? Please share your experience ( advantages, disadvantages) of AIDO etc so that I choose the best one. I need to control VCD/DVD/MP3/TV/RADIO -:) . PS: long ago some of you have written a shell script to have a menu-based system which could go into and come out from a application based on the selection of the menu hence running multiple application. may I get that script ? thanks for your time ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server.

The simplest way to control them is to use modes, i've got a sample lircrc file that has a couple applications controlled (in some convoluted ways, my remote only has 24 buttons total for all things, so i've got a couple buttons that are made to do the menus and everything.) > PS: long ago some of you have written a shell script to have a menu-based > system which could go into and come out from a application based on the > selection of the menu hence running multiple application. may I get that > script ? in this file is the sample lircrc and my small little menu setup using xosd, its not pretty but it works, could probably be tweaked quite a bit to turn it into something better. anyway heres the link http://denonline.sourceforge.net/files/lircmenu.tbz2 -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 Updated: 2005-04-19 GCS/CM/M/S d-(--) s:+ a-->->>+>++>+++$>?$ C+++(++)>++++$ ULB+++(++)>++++$ P++++>++++$ L++++ E----(@) W+++ N++ o?

Greetings. I've been working on this issue for some time and can't seem to find any similar issue in the archives or via google. I feel like I'm very, very close, yet oh so far ;).
